Lower brass will always rain supreme. Unmatched sounds, creating all kinds of modes to set a beautiful scene.

[@SuperGamingAdventures18]

As a euphonium player im glad to here that, means alot to me

[@RasAlXander]

@supergamingadventures2357 I never understood the reasoning of naming an instrument "Well-Sounding" and not giving it the melody, ya know? I've played percussion and tuba/Sousaphone my entire life and just loved those baritone and bass sounds. It's much better to my ears and hits the soul.

[@defaultsplace1348]

Really makes me want to pick up my trumpet and make some really nice variations of the trumpet solo's. Beautiful work!

[@keenanglimpsemusic5918]

I'd love to hear it!

[@j.kendall83]

I marched xylophone in 2017. Great arrangement, very emotional. Its funny they always make us play it at alumni brunch at the end of tour despite not practicing it all summer😂

[@garf-p6n]

this feels like it would play in heaven

[@syniahstewart6348]

This made me tear this is my favorite trumpet solo

[@mauricesmith2258]

Jus wonderful

Omg this was the Video I was waiting for thank you so much

[@jacobhanekamp2534]

That Abadd2 at the end is SO GOOD!

[@keenanglimpsemusic5918]

actually i dislike that part. i wish they would’ve resolved :/

[@jacobhanekamp2534]

@@keenanglimpsemusic5918 I agree in that the resolution would've been godly, but I love the sound of add2 chords. I'm blaming my Jazz Studies 😂

[@cameronbailey7924]

Actually if you add a 6 you have a pentatonic chord which some people dont like but I think its a great way to end with colorful chord.

[@criptonicinn]

add9?

[@parrotmaster8787]

@@criptonicinn take an Ab major chord and add the second of the key. in this case Ab Bb C Eb Ab

[@LOStm61]

Bravo!

[@JaleelAbdul-Qawiy]

Look, I know it’s not close to the actual thing but cords and stuff sound good.

[@awesomeandrewboy6382]

Wake up, you're in heaven

[@anglefox3]

Imma transcribe clarinet :3

[@MrJackHopey]

You do this by ear? Pretty dang good job and pretty close to the OG. Well done.
Jack, Surf ‘16

[@keenanglimpsemusic5918]

yes i did it by ear :)

[@smikkelbeer6352]

Silly unrelated question, but what is the font of the title screen at the start?

[@keenanglimpsemusic5918]

I don't actually know. When you send a score over to TH-cam from Musescore, it automatically puts that at the beginning of the video.

[@josephcrespo5452]

What if Pure imagination full band but the ending is bohemian rhapsody what do y’all think?

[@gamerboy-ul5ii]

I THINK THATS A GREAT IDEA😊😊😊

[@stanlee2743]

Is this accurate to the video because I’m wanting to play with my my brass choir

[@keenanglimpsemusic5918]

yes

[@threeinstein]

Come with me,
And you'll be
In a world of pure imagination
Take a look
And you'll see
Into your imagination
We'll begin with a spin
Traveling in the world of my creation.
What we'll see will defy
Explanation
If you want to view paradise,
Simply look around and view it.
Anything you want to, do it
Want to change the world?
There's nothing to it.
There is no life I know
To compare with pure imagination
Living there, you'll be free
If you truly wish to be
If you want to view paradise,
Simply look around and view it.
Anything you want to, do it
Want to change the world?
There's nothing to it.
There is no life I know
To compare with pure imagination
Living there, you'll be free
If you truly...wish..to be...

[@keenanglimpsemusic5918]

What do you mean?

[@thecuties1212]

is that a trombone or a baritone

[@keenanglimpsemusic5918]

baritone

a lot of the chords in here are pretty wrong

[@MusicPolice-w7m]

I hate to be critical, but this transcription is filled with errors: mostly harmonic errors, but also melodic and rhythmic. I am comparing this transcription to the audio on "Jersey Surf 2020 - Virtual Ensemble performance of our corps song, 'Pure Imagination.' " I suggest more Ear Training and Music Theory for the transcriber. I am not being critical just to be critical - I just need to point out that this transcription isn't even close.

[@keenanglimpsemusic5918]

ok boomer

Its literally spot on bro what you blabbering about 😭
